Entrust® Naturalyte® insect control

Entrust® Naturalyte® insect control  

Active Ingredient: spinosad

Profile: Entrust® Naturalyte® insect control is produced through the fermentation of living organisms. This fermentation technology results in a compound labeled for organic use that combines the powerful efficacy of most synthetic insecticides with the environmental benefits of most biological insecticides. Entrust effectively controls target pests without adversely affecting most non-target organisms.
